Draw in the fins on the back of the jaw like so, and then draw in the large eye and eyeball. Make the lining for the mouth, and then draw the texture lines on the back of the head.

Draw out the rest of the seahorse's body and make sure that you draw the tip or end of the tail curled upward at the bottom. The lining for the back should also contain notches.
